I would imagine he was responding to the posting on net.consumers, not
net.auto.

By the way:  remember all those newspaper stories about children getting
lead poisoning from old lead paint?  My girlfriend -- who is an
epidemiologist -- says that the cause was not lead paint.  It seems that car
exhausts put lead in the air and on the ground, and then the kids go out and
play in the streets and get their hands dirty, and whenever they put their
hands in their mouths they get a dose of lead.
